EMPTY CARS SCARCE
And Flour Blocking Up-Prices
Healthy and Firm.

The mills keep the -four output close
to 10000 barrels per day says the North
western Miller. This was about the
average last week. The product for the
week ending Dec. "a was 10000 barrels
averaging 20. $50 barrels daily-against
10000 barrels last week and $4,000 bar
relS for the corresponding time in 1886.
There is not much change i'll the Situa-
ton on the platform this week. Four
teen mills are running, and they are
producing about 10000 barrels daily.
One steam mill has withdrawn for re-
pairs, leaving seven using engines.
They, of course. are getting out the
bulk of the flour. The water, for few
days past, has been higher as a result
of lighter draft upon it. but with a
low temperature prevailing and con-
slider BILE ice running, the benefits from
this have not been as great as they
would be under other circumstances.
Two mills unders oing improvements for
some weeks past. are about ready to
begin work again,and as they use water
power altogether, their starting may
draw the head down again. There is
general complaint about empty cars
being scarce this week, some OF the
mills getting hardly enough to keep
their packing floors from becoming
blocked. A very light movement in
flour for the East is reported, the mills
in operation paying most of their atten-
ton to clearing up old orders. The eX-
port trade, while not large, wears a
healthier tone. The advance in wheat
the past two days has made millers firm
as to prices and somewhat inclined to
ask little more for flour. The direct
exports of flour last week were A, 800
barrels, against $4,000 barrels the week
before.

UNPROFITABLE INDUSTRY
And the Part 1t Plays in the Gem
eral Tariff CUES ion.

And the Part 1t Plays IN the Cen
eraI Tariff CUES ion.
Clarence Moeller, the state organizer
of the George party, is very interest
ing talker, at least, on the theories of
his principal. He goes on the principle
that it is only necessary to clearly ex-
pound his doctrine to the unprejudiced
nearer to convert him, and is laboring
hard to convert the various newspaper
writer's. While talking in the GLOBE
office he was asked what were his views
in regard to case where the removal
of the tariff would cripple a certain i'll
duStry. The question was put this way:
"AS an avOwed friend of labor. what
would you advocate in a case OF this
kind: There are few pOtteries IN this
country, protected by tariff of 60 per
cent, which is paid by every household
in the country If the tariff on pottery
would be reduced 60 per cent, but the
industry might be wiped out. Would
you advocate that?"
Certainly by all means. 1t would
come under the head of the unprofita-
BILE industries and should go. 1t is tax
ing the whole people for the benefit OF
the few. Take an example: Suppose
some person should erect huge hot
house and grow lemons, but under an
expense that would make it impossible
TO sell them for less than 10 cents each.
To make the business profitable, a tariff
of 10 cents each would have to be
imposed on lemons. Would that be
Just. Suppose this lemon industry
should employ many wOrkmen-would
it be any less right, in the interest of
the many, to abolish that tariff and close
that dollhouse? Industry becomes I'M
profitable when it is only made profit
able by imposing burdensOme tax on
the people. Your pottery illustration
comes under that head"

CHRISTMAS Ar THE HOME.
How the RepentaDt Ones of Beth
any Were Treated.


Thirty-fve new dresses on thirty-fve
young women, all under one roof, with
thirty-twO bright blooming babies, in a
similar condition. as far as clothing
goes, and what confusion there must
have been. This was not so, however
(although as the sex goes it might have
been eXpected), for there was nothing
but happiness and joy beaming ON the
faces of the inmates of Bethany Home
Yesterday afternoon as they spent their
Christmas festivities. The extreme
cold and the remOteneSs of the inStltu-
ton deferred any from going who in
tended being there. but Mrs. Van
Cleve, Mrs. Mendenhall, Mrs. Over
lock and Miss Marsh were on hand and
largely contributed to the pleasure of
the day. Each one of the inmates re-
ceived a Christmas letter and card,
with a new dress as stated above.
Each one OF the children got bag
full of candies and nuts, and the
nursery was a sight TO look upon about
O'Clock. 4 splendid Christmas repaSt
was served during the afternoon, the
tables being loaded down with luscious
turkeys, and all the delicacieS of the
season. Afterwards Mrs. Van Cleve
spoke to the girls in such a mOtherlY.
tender fashion that the majority of them
were reduced to tears, but the music
that followed soon diSpelled their
gloomy thoughts, and the whole day
was given up TO recreation and innocent
amusements. Quite number were
called out to partake OF the good time
that was going on and which came to
an end about o'clock p. m. The in
stltution is a model one. and so neat
and scrupulously clean everything about
it that its very appearance alone is a
fine reflection on Miss Rhodes, the able
matrOn who has charge of the home.

It was definitely announced yesterday
that Rev. Frank o. Holman, of the Foss
NJ. E. church, would succeed Rev. 5. q.
Smith as pastor of the First church at
st. Paul. The decision was reached at
a meeting on Tuesday night, but Bishop
Foss withheld the announcement. On
that evening the bishop met the trustees
and stewards of Foss church and re-
0uested the release of Mr.. Holman, but
il was not without reluctance that it was
acceded TO. one of the six holding out in
voting against it. For the present
the vacancy will not be filled, as the
people will not be satisfied with any but
frst-class material. The people of the
First church of this city had already
settled among themselves that they
would get Mr.. Holman next year. and
they are very much disappointed at his
being sent to st. Paul.
Rev. Frank q. Holman is one OF the
youngest ministers in the city, but IS
regarded as one of the brightest and
most promising in the Northwest. He
is not much of a sermoniZer, but is an
eloquent pulpit orator, an accomplished
theOlogian, and very earnest and con-
Scientious minister. He will assume

A RUN OF OPERA.
The Gypsy Baron Next---Current
Attractions at the Theaters,

n
Attractions at the Theaters.
1.-THE Gypsy Baron." presented by
the Conried Opera company, will be the
New Years attraction at the Grand
opera for one week. Without doubt the
Conried Opera company is the greatest
opera comiQue company travelling. All
the artists are well known and each
principal has made decided hit in some
opera, or has been the star of some
great organization. Conried and Her.
mann control ali the American rights for
all the best continental composers, and
McCaull and the Casino have to get
their material through this source. 1t is
but feasible to suppose that these great
opera dealers should put on the road
the best company of its kind ever seen.
This was evidenced last year by the
phenom nal business done at the Grand
by this company. The principals are
just the same and a double cast is
carried, thus preventing any possibility
of the opera not going well. This is un-
precedented with most managers. The
chorus is the JOY and pride of Manager
FitZgerald's heart, comprising, tits said,
the lOYelieSt specimens of young ladies
that have ever come into this cold and
barren climate. Of the principals much
can be said. Laura Bellini was with
Abbott for number of seasons; Jacques
Kruger, the most delightful butfO on
the stage, is well remembered as the
''phunny'' Photographer in dreams"
Then there is pretty Jennie Reifforth,
Louis Bianchl, Helen Won DoenhOff. Sig.
